✅ Stats before the game: Lazio have gone unbeaten in their last eight Serie A matches against Empoli, winning six in a row and drawing the last two; the capitolini and the tuscans have never drawn three games in a row in the competition. Lazio have won all of their last three away games against Empoli in Serie A, one more success than those obtained in the previous nine away games against the Tuscans in the competition (W2, D3, L4). Empoli have won three of their last five league games (D2), as many victories as in their previous 17 Serie A matches (D6, L8). Empoli have scored 43 points in this championship and if they win they would equal their second best result in the history of the competition: 46 points, like in 2015/16 (only in 2006/07 – 54 – they did better).
